I know what you mean Ram.
It is sometimes very frustrating trying to shoot a restless hoverfly.
Still, you persevered and the resulting image is great.
A beautifully clear macro with a great POV. Excellent job.

salut Ram,
cette mouche est souvent présente sur Tn en ce moment. Superbe POV, bonne netteté sur ces gros yeux.

Hi Ram,

another interesting shot with informative write-up.
This Hoverfly, is not as attractive as those beautiful Dragonflies.
The detail however is excellent, so clear and sharp.

How intriguing are the lines and spots. A very unusual find and very different than many insect picture I have seen. It is almost a picture within a picture. Such an elusive creature and you had the tenacious mind to capture it...or was it simply patience. Either way it is interesting in design.

You have a special eye for flies, Ram!
And this hoverfly shot is no exception. Superb clarity and detail in this front POV set in a fine compostion to show the unique eyes of Eristalinus sepuchralis to their best advantage.

Hi Ram,
Amazing eyes. You keep finding them. Everyday has been so educative and a host of new species seen, even though through photos. Perfect POV, focus and lighting. The details of its body are extraordinary. Beautifully done. Very nicely composed. Kudos.
TFS.

Good detail, DOF, & POV Ram, and I like the composition. I do appreciate the degree of difficulty..I've been known to chase a few of these guys around before :)
The colors of the fly are a little bit flat, over-powered by your flash IMHO. Have you tried diffusing the light from your in-camera flash head?
Well done.

Hello Ram,
You seem to be surrounded by weird flies down there!! But they're not only weird, they're very interesting too and your capture of this one is excellent. I've never seen one with spotted eyes before!! Very sharp details and nice colours in this fine composition.
TFS and best wishes, Ulla

How do you find all of these fascinating insects? The details on this are so intricate that it is amazing. Shows off wonderfully against the green leaf. Wonderful macro, as always.

Hi Ram,
Good details and composition, I liked the colors and the sharpness too. I'm not sure but it looks a bit overexposed ( i might be wrong because my laptop display is not calibrated yet ).
